Abstract in brief
Menopause hormone therapy (MHT) can help reduce menopause symptoms but its effects on heart and blood vessel health are complex and not fully clear.
The review of 33 studies with over 44,600 women found that MHT generally does not significantly change overall death or cardiovascular event rates, but it may increase the risk of stroke and blood clots.
Women who started MHT within 10 years of menopause tend to have better outcomes, such as lower death and cardiovascular risks, and improved blood vessel flexibility, especially when using estrogen combined with other therapies.
Early acceptance of #MHT not only reduces the #risk of #allcausedeath and #cardiovascularevents but also further improves #FMD, although the risk of #stroke and #venousthrombosis is not reduced.

@kimheifnernp @michaeltwymanmd That’s true! But despite this, it doesn’t seem HRT lowers CV and may increase it: https://t.co/zKxnf3uceI.
